When will 'Prodigal Son' Season 2 Episode 8 air? Fox leaves slate empty as crime thriller takes a break
Going against its steady schedule, 'Prodigal Son' took its first break from airing new episodes last week, on February 23. Luckily for fans, this Tuesday night, March 2, the Fox thriller returns with another thrilling episode that sees Catherine Zeta-Jones and Alan Cumming join the star-studded cast, but this excitement isn't to last for long if we were to reveal what's next on the show's arc.
Sadly, next week will once again be disappointing for fans as there will be no new episode of 'Prodigal Son' Season 2 airing on Tuesday night. Sure, there will be an older episode to fill the 9 pm time slot on March 9, but following that will be another three-week-long hiatus until the show returns with newer episodes on the network. Wondering when there's a fresh episode next? Read on to find out.

According to Futon Critics' listings, the upcoming Episode 8 of 'Prodigal Son' Season 2 is expected to return no sooner than March 30, 2021. Against next week's Tuesday, March 9, the website has listed an older episode from the ongoing season, with no air dates to follow after that until the end of the month. Usually, in case of repeat telecasts, names of the older episodes are listed against Tuesdays, but that's not the case for this month. The network is yet to tease a title for Episode 8 either, so for now, there's barely any information on what's to come.
However, that doesn't mean there's nothing to look forward to next week. With fans of crime thrillers and murder mystery procedurals, any episode is as good as a new episode. So in case you are devoted to the twisted shenanigans of Michael Sheen's infamous serial killer The Surgeon, you can always tune in to Fox at the show's designated 9 pm time slot next Tuesday, March 9, to revisit Season 2 Epsiode 2 'Speak of The Devil'.
According to the official synopsis of the episode, "When a priest is found murdered in his place of worship, Bright grapples with its effect on his own trauma. Martin, trying to help with the case, consults his fellow inmate, Friar Pete (guest star Christian Borle), whom he learns is keeping a secret of his own. Meanwhile, Ainsley grows worried that Jessica is keeping something from her regarding her relationship with Gil. And Dani, Gil and Malcolm rally behind JT, urging him to speak to his union rep about the discrimination he's been facing."
As for what's to expect on the newest episode airing tonight, on March 2, titled 'Face Value', the synopsis details: "Malcolm, still reeling from the latest events with Ainsley, focuses on the next case, in which a famous plastic surgeon is murdered. Meanwhile, Martin gets a new job working in the infirmary with resident MD Dr. Vivian Capshaw (Zeta-Jones). Then, Jessica is surprised to learn her younger sister is in town."
'Prodigal Son' Season 2 airs on Tuesdays at 9 pm ET/PT only on FOX.
